I am using bjam to build my application on suse linux. I have defined a <br>environment variable BOOST_ROOT, which allows me to switch between<br>boost builds.� I have used this approach for 1.38, 1.39,1.40.<br>I always build the boost libraries I need myself using bjam.<br>
��� bjam --build-dir=./tmpBuildDir toolset=gcc stage link=static --with-system<br>i.e I don&#39;t bother with build scripts in $BOOST_ROOT<br><br>With 1.42 when I build my application I get� an error of the form: <br><br>
error: Unable to find file or target named<br>error:���� &#39;/var/tmp/ma0/boost/boost_1_42_0/stage/lib/libboost_system.a&#39;<br>error: referred from project at<br>error:���� &#39;&#39;<br><br>The error is very misleading because the file exists?<br>
When I switch back, to 1.39/1.40 there are no problems.<br><br>This is what my boost-build.jam look like:<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>BOOST_BUILD = [ MATCH --boost-build=(.*) : $(ARGV) ] ;<br>
BOOST_BUILD ?= $(BOOST_ROOT)/tools/build/v2 ;<br>boost-build $(BOOST_BUILD) ;<br><br><br>Here is jam file for my leaf project:<br>----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>use-project theCore : ../ACore ;<br>
exe test : [ glob src/*.cpp� ] <br>���������� /site-config//boost_system<br>���������� /site-config//boost_serialization<br>��������� : &lt;include&gt;../SCRATCH/src<br>����������� &lt;variant&gt;debug:&lt;define&gt;DEBUG<br>
��� ���� ;<br clear="all">--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>Notice that I reference /site-config// to reference the boost libs.<br>for some reason in 1.42� this fails !<br><br>
My site-config.file which is located in $BOOST_ROOT/tools/build/v2<br>is of the form:<br>------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>import os ;<br>local BOOST_ROOT = [ os.environ BOOST_ROOT ] ;<br>
<br>lib boost_serialization : :�� &lt;file&gt;$(BOOST_ROOT)/stage/lib/libboost_serialization.a ;<br>lib boost_system : :��� &lt;file&gt;$(BOOST_ROOT)/stage/lib/libboost_system.a ;<br>�<br>project site-config <br>��� : requirements &lt;include&gt;$(BOOST_ROOT)� <br>
��� ;<br>using gcc ;<br>using testing ;<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>My site-config.jam is the same between 1.40 and 1.42. There is <br>probably a silly mistake on my part somewhere, but its preventing me<br>
from moving to 1.42.<br><br>Any help appreciated.<br><br> � Best regards,<br>Ta,<br> � �Avi<br><br>
